The Pelicans are going through their most brutal stretch of the season. Would have been tough regardless of injuries.

I think people are now discouraged after last game because of how they looked. Unfortunately, these last couple road games (most winnable only in terms of teams they are playing) are after a long stretch of games. Is it unimaginable for a team to not have their legs and be tired after this stretch? We have seen a similar script last season.

This is all part of a grueling NBA schedule. We need more of a sample size to better analyze this team and their components. NBA teams have games like last night at end of road trips. Especially when they have been undermanned and play at a high pace.

It's not that they lost. It's how they looked in the loss. Losing games - even five in a row - can be written off because of schedule, cold shooting, bad luck, etc. But they looked HORRIBLE last night. Not just the results, but the process.

Ball movement was terrible, defenive communication was non existent. Lack of diverse skill sets were on full display. If Spurs had one of those fluke got games or Pels got great shots and were cold, that's one thing. But last night, the Pels were straight trash
